Chapter 112 Ruanruan is missing!
In addition to Shuangxue, there are also a few maids staying in the water room to boil water today, but they take turns. The first few go out to eat the banquet, receive the wedding money, and then come back to take their place.
So it is normal for the little maid to come and change the tea.
Shuangxue put down her chopsticks and wanted to get up to change Xia Zheng's tea, but Xia Zheng held her back and said, "It's just the three of us today, and the Second Miss isn't one to stick to the rules, so just sit back and enjoy your meal."
Shuangxue glanced at Xia Zheng.
Xia Zheng remained calm and continued to pick up food for Gu Yingxin.
Seeing this, the little maid quickly walked forward, changed the tea for Gu Yingxin first, then walked to Xia Zheng, put down the newly brewed teacup, and moved her hand to the cold one.
When she got closer, Xia Zheng could see her hands.
It's rough and has a lot of scars.
Although the work in the bathroom was not easy, it was better than other jobs. At least there was charcoal fire, and I didn't have to do too much rough work. How could I get my hands like this in a place where I wouldn't get frostbite in the winter?
Just as the hand was about to touch the cold teacup and was closest to Xia Zheng, it suddenly turned its hand, and a sharp dagger slipped out from its sleeve and was held in its hand, quickly attacking Xia Zheng's neck.
Xia Zheng was prepared and moved to the side. The little maid was caught off guard and had no time to change direction, so the blade only cut a small hole on the side of Xia Zheng's neck.
Seeing the other party trying to assassinate her, Yueya immediately hugged Gu Yingxin and retreated.
Frost Snow threw chopsticks, which hit the maid's dagger. The chili oil on the chopsticks splashed into her eyes, stinging her so much that she couldn't open them, so she swung the dagger around.
But before she could stab twice, Shuangxue jumped over the table and kicked her in the abdomen, kicking her a dozen feet away and hitting her hard against the pillar.
Before she could cry out in pain, Shuangxue was already in front of her, snatched the dagger from her hand, twisted her hands behind her back, pressed her knees down on her back, and pinned her to the ground so that she couldn't move at all.
"Let go! Let go!" The little maid roared and struggled, but it was of no use.
Enduring the severe pain, he opened his eyes and looked at Xia Zheng standing in front of him, unharmed. He cried out in anger, "Xia Zheng! You vicious woman! You killed my mother! I will kill you! I must kill you!"
"Your mother? Who is she?"
Seeing that Xia Zheng had no memory at all, the little maidservant became even more angry. She wanted to rush over and bite her to death, but she couldn't move at all. "My mother is Mrs. Huan, the one who delivered you! You killed her, and you still don't remember her! You deserve to die!"
"Mrs. Huan? Of course I remember her. She almost ripped my softie out of my belly and killed me. I'll remember her for the rest of my life."
"You're talking nonsense! You're the one who wronged my mother! My mother was helping you give birth, and you were trying to cover up the fact that you gave birth to a daughter and threatened her to switch babies. Since my mother didn't agree, you framed her. It was all your fault, you vicious woman!"
That's what she was told.
It seems that Tao Yurong really thought about replacing a daughter with a son on the day she gave birth. She was probably ready for a boy, but now it was all thrown on her.
"You won't believe me even if I say this. No problem, you'll believe it later."
As soon as she finished speaking, before the little maid could say anything, Shuangxue stuffed her mouth with cloth.
Looking at the man struggling on the ground, still being bound by frost and snow, Gu Yingxin chewed the meat in her mouth twice and swallowed it before asking, "Isn't this man from the mansion?"
Xia Zheng shook her head.
"Then how did she get in?" Although Gu Yingxin was not at the mansion, she knew that the Duke's Mansion had been under strict guard since the last assassination attempt. It was extremely difficult for outsiders to enter the inner courtyard. Judging from the girl's posture, she didn't know martial arts at all, she just learned some on the spot. How could she get in by herself?
Xia Zheng didn't say anything, but Gu Yingxin had already figured it out. "Someone deliberately sent her here! If Shuangxue hadn't known martial arts, you would have died today!"
is not that right.
That's what they were planning.
Fortunately, Shuangxue had been hiding her kung fu, and no one knew about it except Gu Yi. Xia Zheng only discovered it from clues after spending time with her every day.
That's why I dared to let everyone out today and leave Frost Snow alone.
Besides Tao Yurong, the only one who could hide someone in the inner courtyard was Wei Qingqing.
Tao Yurong would not dirty her own hands. It was Tao Yurong who instigated Wei Qingqing to make trouble before the marriage. It must have been a plan arranged at that time.
The reason why they waited until today was probably because, firstly, it was the best opportunity, and secondly, Wei Qingqing had taught this girl kung fu for some time.
"I'll go tell my mother right now!" Gu Yingxin was about to go out indignantly, but Xia Zheng hurriedly held her back.
Just when I was about to say that it wouldn't be too late to talk about everything after the full moon banquet was over, I heard a noise coming from outside, as if there was a lot of busyness.
At this time, the busy work should be in the front yard.
While I was wondering, I heard the sound of hurried footsteps approaching.
After a while, Frost rushed in, sweating profusely and with a pale face. He looked around the room as if looking for something.
"Frost? Why are you back? Is the full moon banquet over?" Xia Zheng asked curiously.
Frost shook his head hastily, took a few breaths, and then asked, "Little Miss... is she back?"
Hearing this, Xia Zheng's heart instantly tightened, but she didn't dare to think the worst and asked, "Didn't you and Madam Liang take Ruanruan to the front yard? How could she come back by herself?"
"That's right, the baby is only one month old, how could he walk back by himself? How could you, a maid, ask such a stupid question." Gu Yingxin was also angry. She had just eaten a few bites when these two people came to disturb her.
"Madam Liang and I took her there. We didn't dare to leave her side even for a moment, not even to look away. But...but the young lady's diaper was dirty, so Madam Liang took her to the side room to change it. I waited outside the door, but after waiting for a long time, Madam Liang didn't come out. I called a few times but there was no response, so I went in to check, and the result...the result..."
"What's the result!" Xia Zheng asked anxiously.
"In the end, Madam Liang fell to the ground at some point. I searched the entire house but couldn't find the young lady. I reported it to the Crown Prince's Consort, and she said to search secretly first because the guests were all there and we couldn't make a big fuss. It's already two o'clock in the morning, and there's still...no news."
In an instant, all the hairs on Xia Zheng's body stood up, her entire brain exploded, and everything went blank. She couldn't even utter a word.
Soft!
Her softness is gone!
This shouldn't be the case. Tao Yurong wants Ruanruan, and she won't hurt Ruanruan, especially not at a time like today...
Wei Qingqing!
Yes! Wei Qingqing!
Xia Zheng had only one thought in her mind, to find Wei Qingqing.
Without caring about anything else, he ran out.
"Hey! You're still in confinement! You can't..." Before Gu Yingxin finished her words, Xia Zheng had already come out, and Shuangxue and Shuangjiang followed her out in a hurry.
"What's going on?" Gu Yingxin snorted, then grabbed a cloak from the hanger, told Yueya to keep an eye on the tied-up maid, and ran out with her. "Thanks to Xipan, Jiahe Buer, Puff, Qimao Shuyou -0, and Xiaoge Dingbiao Ayan for the rewards. Follow Citrus Leaf to keep up with the latest updates."
